A recipient of federal awards is required to determine that vendors being paid with federal funds are not suspended or debarred from doing business with the City.

The City did not verify that any of their vendors with purchases over $25,000 were not suspended or debarred from doing business with the City, or did not retain documentation to evidence that this verification had taken place. Cause. This condition was caused by management oversight in knowing the federal compliance requirements of the grant. Effect. As a result of this condition, the City was exposed to the risk that disbursements of federal awards would be made to vendors suspended or debarred by the federal government. Questioned Costs. No costs have been questioned as a result of this finding, inasmuch as no suspended or debarred transactions were noted. Recommendation. We recommend that the City verify that all of their vendors over $25,000 spent with federal funds were not suspended or debarred, and retain documentation to this verification.

The City is required to report the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds expenditures following applicable grant reporting guidance. Condition. While the City performed the required Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds expenditure reporting for each quarter of 2024, the Project and Expenditure reports for the first three quarters of 2024 did not report any current period expenditures. Rather, the cumulative expenditures for the year were included in the fourth quarter Project and Expenditure report. In addition, the Project and Expenditure reports for the third and fourth quarters of 2024 were not filed within the required timeframe. Cause. This condition was caused by technical issues with the online grant reporting portal, and management not having processes in place to ensure that reports filed were accurate, complete, and filed timely. Effect. As a result of this condition, the City did not comply completely with the reporting requirements of the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds grant. Questioned Costs. No costs are required to be questioned as a result of this finding, inasmuch as no unallowable expenditures were noted and the reports did not serve as a mechanism for reimbursement. Recommendation. We recommend that the City review the reporting requirements for each grant and complete all required reporting as required under the terms of the grant agreement. View of Responsible Officials.

Immaterial Noncompliance/Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance (Allowable Costs/Cost Principles, Cash Management, and Procurement, Suspension and Debarment). Program. Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds; U.S. Department of Treasury; ALN 21.027; Award Numbers GJM5M2C6X6G5, DW-7731A, DW-7640A, and DW-7686A. Criteria. The Uniform Guidance requires a non-federal entity that has expended federal awards for a grant awarded on or after December 26, 2014 to have written policies pertaining to various areas, including: 1) Payments (draws of federal funds and how to minimize the time elapsing between the receipt of federal funds and the disbursement to contractors/employees/subrecipients) (§200.302 (6)); 2) Procurement (including bidding and a conflict of interest policy) (§200.318); 3) Allowability of costs charged to federal programs (§200.302 (7)); 4) Compensation (personnel and benefits policy) (§200.430 and §200.431); and 5) Travel costs (including mileage and per diem) (§200.474). Although the City has processes in place to cover these areas and draft policies have been developed, there are no formal written policies that address all of the areas required by the Uniform Guidance. Cause. This condition appears to be the result of a time lag in identifying the requirement and developing a plan for compliance. Effect. As a result of this condition, the City did not fully comply with the Uniform Guidance applicable to the above noted grants. Questioned Costs. No costs were required to be questioned as a result of this finding inasmuch as our testing did not reveal any unallowed costs or excess cash draws. Recommendation. We recommend that the City review and approve the draft policies as soon as practical. View of Responsible Officials. The City agrees with the audit finding. A corrective action plan has been prepared.
